Polygon has completed the Madhugiri hard fork and increased network speed by 33%
The update reduced consensus time to 1 second and boosted throughput by nearly one-third.
The network introduced the Fusaka EIP (7823, 7825, 7883), making heavy computations cheaper and safer, while preventing the network from being overloaded by a single “heavy” transaction.
A new transaction type for the Ethereum → Polygon bridge has been added, simplifying interaction between the networks.

Pyth Network creates a PYTH reserve to support the ecosystem
The project is launching a reserve mechanism that involves purchasing PYTH tokens to strengthen the network’s value.
The initiative aims to increase ecosystem stability and investor confidence by linking the token’s price to growing adoption and revenues.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin said that the network’s architecture is too complex for ordinary users, forcing participants to rely on a narrow circle of developers.
According to him, the goal of Ethereum’s roadmap is to simplify interaction with the blockchain to the level of familiar web applications.

Pudgy Penguins hits the biggest ad screen in Las Vegas
NFT project Pudgy Penguins brought its characters to the Las Vegas Sphere — one of the world’s most famous and expensive media venues. The display is running throughout Christmas week.
The team reportedly spent around $500,000 on the campaign, focusing on animated characters and physical merch rather than directly promoting the NFTs or the token — partly due to restrictions on crypto advertising on such venues.
The project has been shifting toward a consumer brand: as NFT revenue cooled, the team expanded into toys, turning it into a separate revenue stream.

Launch of the updated Trust Wallet Chrome extension has been delayed again
Following the Trust Wallet hack, the team prepared an updated Chrome version, but the release is being delayed: according to the CEO, the extension is temporarily unavailable on the Chrome Web Store due to a technical issue on Google’s side.
🛠 The update was expected to add tools for affected users, including case checks and submitting compensation claims for losses estimated at around $7 million.
Trust Wallet warns of a higher risk of fake apps on the Chrome Web Store during the pause.

On January 3, 2009, the Bitcoin genesis block was created, for which Satoshi Nakamoto received the first 50 BTC.
Soon after, he stepped away from the project, leaving the network’s development to a decentralized community — the very force that transformed Bitcoin from an idea into a global financial phenomenon.

• Prividium — privacy by default and native integration with banking and corporate infrastructure.
• ZK Stack — unifying ZK networks into a single ecosystem without bridges, with shared liquidity and applications.
• Airbender — the evolution of zkVM: less focus on speed races, more emphasis on security, stability, and developer experience.

The crypto market has noticeably picked up over the past 24 hours: Bitcoin surged toward $97,000, while Ethereum is trading around $3,360. 🚀
However, a broad altcoin rally is still missing: most altcoins are either moving sideways or even declining, with only a few exceptions.
This suggests that liquidity is flowing mainly into Bitcoin and Ethereum, rather than spreading across the wider altcoin market.
Despite the lack of mass altcoin growth, market sentiment is improving.
The Crypto Fear & Greed Index has entered the “Greed” zone (61) for the first time since October 2025, signaling growing optimism and increased risk appetite among investors.

"1011 INSIDER" LOST $35.9 MILLION AS MARKET CRASHED
As crypto dumped amid rising EU–US tensions, the "1011 market crash trader" saw unrealized profits plunge by $35.9M.
His current $BTC, $ETH, and $SOL long positions now show only $13M in unrealized gains.
After $7.7M in funding fees, net unrealized profit sits at only $5.2M.

The viral adoption of Claude Code by Anthropic among developers has driven network activity and the number of addresses on Solana up by at least 50% in recent weeks.
Anthropic’s AI agent has simplified and accelerated token launches, triggering explosive growth of the Bags platform, which is used for launching AI tokens.
Compared to December, Bags launch fees have surged to over $100,000 per day, up from $640 in December. However, the emergence of new tokens on the Solana network does not protect them from volatility and sharp price declines.

A survey conducted by the UK Cryptoassets Business Council (UKCBC) found that transfers between bank accounts and cryptocurrency exchanges are frequently blocked, delayed, or rejected, even when using regulated platforms.
Eight out of ten surveyed crypto exchanges reported a noticeable increase over the past 12 months in the number of customers experiencing blocked or restricted transfers, with none reporting a decline.
Banks typically do not provide clear explanations for payment blocks or account restrictions.
One of the UK’s leading crypto platforms recorded approximately £1 billion in rejected transactions over the past year, linked to refused payments and transfers via the Open Banking system.

Amid a dramatic collapse in the cryptocurrency market and Bitcoin’s drop to $78,000, Canton Network (CC) emerged as the only token to reach a new all-time high this Saturday.
CC jumped nearly 12% to $0.193 before correcting to around $0.18, still trading slightly higher on the day.
The rally in the RWA tokenization network has been fueled by multiple partnerships with major market players such as Goldman Sachs and BNP Paribas. As a result, some investors have begun to view CC as a defensive asset during broader market turbulence.

Hello Folks! 👋
Today, we're discussing exciting developments from Shido Network, a super-fast and scalable L1 blockchain based on Proof-of-Stake. Shido isn't just an ordinary blockchain – they are heavily focused on on-chain agentic economy, aka AI-based autonomous systems on the blockchain. Currently, Shido has a speed of 15,000 TPS, making them one of the fastest in the crypto world!
⚡️ Nova Upgrade: A Major Revolution in 2026
The Nova Upgrade is version 3 (V3) of Shido Network, planned for full release in 2026. This isn't a minor update, but a total transformation to make the network faster, more secure, and user-friendly.
📔 Launch Phases:
- Nova Testnet✅
- Nova Mainnet: Live Q1 2026♻️
Key Features That Will Blow Your Mind:
- Instant transaction confirmations in just 400 milliseconds (less than 1 second)! TPS will increase to 30,000 TPS.
- Upgradable without disrupting the main network.
- Stronger protection against attacks, with optimized consensus and execution.
- State store migration to V3, more efficient processes, and pruning of old data to keep the network lightweight.
This will make Shido ready to compete with centralized infrastructure like cloud servers, but still decentralized and secure!⚠️
📈 2026 Roadmap: Focus on Optimization
Shido is building an ecosystem where low latency, high throughput, and maximum composability are priorities. The goal? To allow developers to build applications without limits, especially in DeFi, NFTs, and on-chain AI. They allocate block space intelligently, enhance the core network, and create better value flows for all parties.
📌 Latest Collaborations and Integrations
🪙 CMC Integration: Shido's on-chain data is now directly connected, including tokens, DEX, and ecosystem. Transparency levels up, making it super easy to track assets!
🤝 Strategic Partners: Collaborations with RoundtableSpace, AMINA Bank Global, Sygnum, and Arab Bank CH – this shows Shido is serious about entering the real financial world and DeFi.
💰 Supporting Applications: Non-custodial wallet for buying, storing, sending, and swapping assets. There's also a cross-chain DEX, NFT Gallery, and fiat on/off ramps that make entering and exiting crypto easier.
The crypto market is volatile right now, but Shido keeps building!

Missed the $ZEC or $XMR run? $CCD is the next privacy play 💸
one of the most undervalued gems of the cycle. comparable infrastructure projects sit at $2B-$5B MC. $CCD is at $160M. the setup is clean.
🧠 Hilbert Group (NASDAQ-listed) did an OTC deal and is now market buying $CCD for the next 6 months. sustained institutional buy pressure on a low cap. you do the math.
🔥 what's live right now:
Uphold, KuCoin, MEXC, Gate and Kraken all listed
Ledger and Bitcoin.com integrations live, Verify & Pay reaching tens of millions of users
Coinbase x402 integration live, making $CCD one of the first chains running internet-native PayFi
Charles Hoskinson has publicly talked about it
Coinbase and Binance could be next
💡 This isn't just a privacy coin. it's PayFi infrastructure, Concordium is the first L1 to bring ZK proofs + identity verification + payments in one flow. The utility is actually there: prove your age, pay, get access. one click. privately. gaming, gambling, AI agents, e-commerce, the potential is insane.
risk/reward at $160M MC with this catalyst stack is hard to ignore. don't be the one posting "wish I bought at $160M MC" in 6 months 💎
DYOR. But this is the one not to miss.
